Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
You shout it out
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
Shoot me down, but I get up
I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
Cut me down
But it's you who'll have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
Talking loud, not saying much
I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium
Stone hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone hard, as bulletproof glass
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
Shoot me down, but I get up
I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
Cut me down
But it's you who'll have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
Talking loud, not saying much
I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium
Stone hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone hard, as bulletproof glass
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
it sounds like she is someone who is used to hitting rock bottom and has become emotionally strong and apathetic, so she has "nothing to lose". ironically, not being happy is why she can celebrate feeling almost invincible like titanium!
I think it´s about a quarrel. But she says nothing what he says can affect her. Nothing is going to let her down."It´s you who´ll have further to fall", she has more to criticize him."Stone hard, machine gun, fired at the ones who run", probably she wants to finish the relationship.
"Nothing is going to let her down", I was wrong there. No words are going to make her feel bad,that was what I wanted to express.
You can take this song literally too though, it doesn't actually have to have a deeper message about relationships in it.... -_-
After the creation of "Elastic heart", coming back to this song,which is one of my favourites ever made, i 've come to the conclusion that Sia has identity issues. She has seperate "self-states".She herself admitted it and acknowledges it,which shows that she is really smart and self-understanding.She is so creative and unique that can use her "biggest weakness", to the "normal" world, and turn it it to her biggest asset and the baseline of the maintenance of her career.I find her art extremely smart and emotional at the same time. Considering this song,we see throughout the whole song the emerge of the "Protector" self coming to the aid of the emotionally unstable vulnerable "Host" self of hers absorbing all the abuse she is taking and managing to keep her in track with her life.As long as that state of hers is by her side,she "has nothing to lose" no matter how much anyone "fires away" on her and she feels like "Titanium". Again, this is another one of her songs enforced with a powerful meaning of hope and strength for everyone.She is really amazing.Any other thoughts?
I love the version of this song in Pitch Perfect! :)
Sia is one of my Favorite Singer and what a Strong Lyric this one is, It can be interpreted that it's about a quarrel with a person, where the singer wanna just show his/her strength that with the time I've grown strong, so all these hits can never bring me down. But my Interpretation is, a Singer writes a Song for bigger reasons (Especially Sia) I see this is a Quarrel (a form of Love and Rage) to God, after praying and doing good deeds, still getting hit by the life from everywhere, Dreams, Job, Friends, People ( Dangerous creature around), Rules, Expectations...at the end of the day after fighting with all of em', Looking in the sky Singer is singing this song to HIM, No matter how hard you'll hit, how many tests you'll take, and I'll stay Strong. Like the radiant Sun, I'll again wake up again as I'm tough like titanium, and I'll Roar towards the life, That "You Shoot me down, But I Won't Fall" as I'm Bulletproof. I know the basic truth that I have to fight my wars alone and I've nothing to lose, that's how I'll fight which makes me invisible warrior.
Beautiful Song for filling Strength if you are feeling low.
